"Dr. Dianala has been instrumental with helping me develop reporting documents for my church. I was impressed with her help with another church where she

helped develop fliers and letters of introduction to organizations to help with the church's soup kitchen initiatives. Overall, it seems to me that Dr. Dianala can develop writing documents for any situation...She is wonderful!"

New York, NY teacher:
Dr. D. B.

Review by Julie

"As an adult student who has struggled with creative writing, Larry has been instrumental in opening a whole new world of self expression for me. I highly

recommend him for any student who wishes to either grasp fundamental skills or for the one who simply wishes to polish their own.

Additionally Larry has been able to introduce me to Shakespeare, a life long interest of mine... one which has always frustrated me do to my lack of understanding, in a non threatening, non stressful way.

Thank you Larry."
